Well Workplaces Ep112 - Resilience and the Workplace with Jess Ekserdjian and Sophie Curtis
Today, we're joined by Jess Ekserdjian and Sophie Curtis, clinical psychologists and co-founders of Enso Workplace Wellbeing. Their extensive experience in public mental health and private practice has honed their focus on workplace wellbeing and resilience.
Resilience, for Jess and Sophie, is not just about bouncing back from adversity but thriving during stability. They emphasise the pivotal role of mindset, employing psychological frameworks like CBT and self-compassion.
Their workshops empower individuals to identify and reframe negative thoughts, leading to tangible improvements in workplace wellbeing and performance. They stress the importance of open dialogues on workplace wellbeing and have found active employee engagement to be a powerful tool. The pandemic has underscored the relevance of resilience, making it a post-COVID buzzword. Jess and Sophie recommend organisations measure the impact of resilience programs on both employees and workplace culture.
Looking ahead, they foresee a sustained focus on workplace resilience and wellbeing, recognising its pivotal role in organisational success. This emphasis will be critical for organisations navigating the evolving landscape of work.
